As soon as Su Ding entered the house, the phone rang. It was President Jin.
"Hello, President Jin, what can I do for you?"
"Are you free this Saturday? I'll take you to the beach..." Jin Ye paused, then added, "Xiao Xi has been mentioning wanting to go to the beach. I think he'd really like to invite you."
Su Ding said without thinking, "Oh, I think I have a scene to film that day, so it might not be convenient... You guys go. Thank you for the invitation, President Jin."
She felt she had been getting too close to the Jin father and son lately. If this continued, it might lead to misunderstandings.
"Don't worry about the film crew, I'll make the arrangements," Jin Ye decided without waiting for her reply.
Before Su Ding could say anything else, Jin Ye interrupted, "It's getting late, get some rest early. Good night."
"Dudududu..."
Su Ding sighed and thought carefully about Jin Ye's attitude toward her. She increasingly suspected that the head of the Jin family wanted to trick her into marrying him and becoming a mother to his son.
But what about Jin Ye and Shao Lin?
When she asked about it in the office, Jin Ye's expression changed. There must be a secret involved...

The next morning, Su Ding arrived at the film set.
The crew members were busy arranging sets and props, while the actors were either getting their makeup done or chatting in groups.
Suddenly, there was a gasp and hushed murmurs. Su Ding looked over.
A luxury car was parked at the entrance, its hood open to reveal a trunk full of roses.
The dazzling, vibrant red instantly captured the attention of all the actresses present.
"Wow, who are these for? Such a generous gesture!"
"I heard they're for Miss Su. It must be some big shot sending a token of goodwill to Sister Mu!"
"Haha, it definitely is! Sister Mu was just nominated for Best Supporting Actress last month!"
...
The set buzzed with discussion, and even the director came over to join the fun.
The lead actress, Su Qingmu, walked over gracefully. Seeing the car full of red roses and the envious glances cast her way, she couldn't hide her delight.
"Sister Mu, quickly go see which big shot sent you these beautiful roses!" Su Qingmu's agent said excitedly.
Su Ding also joined the crowd, pulling up a small stool to watch from the side, thinking, "Spending so much money on a car full of roses, I can't understand the minds of rich people."
Su Qingmu initially didn't go to sign for them, waiting for the crowd of onlookers to grow larger. Then, with a beaming smile, she approached the luxury car.
"Excuse me, I'm here to sign for them."
As Su Qingmu approached the "delivery man," she suddenly felt like she had seen him somewhere before.
What flower shop delivery person uses a luxury car? Even if it was a rented car specified by the customer, one wouldn't be wearing such an expensive, high-end suit, would they...
Lan Shi was following his cousin's instructions to deliver the flowers to Miss Su when there were many people around, under everyone's gaze.
But the lady in front of him didn't seem to be the one in the photo...
"Hello, may I ask who you are?" Lan Shi asked with a slight smile, maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor.
Su Qingmu's expression immediately soured.
She was quite well-known in the industry now. This person came to the set and didn't even know who the flowers were for? She was going to leave a bad review!
"Is this your service quality?" she said unpleasantly, glancing at Lan Shi. Her voice was cold as she extended her hand and rudely said, "Hand over the order."
Lan Shi's smile faded, and his sharp gaze swept over the arrogant woman before him.
He was, after all, a department manager at Huang Qi Group and President Jin's cousin. In his life, no one had ever dared to be so rude to him!
Especially not this person, who was just a minor actress!
"Call your director over."
Lan Shi completely ignored her and strode forward, asking a staff member.
Although he was wearing the uniform of a flower shop employee, his innate elegance and demeanor clearly indicated his noble status, far from that of an ordinary delivery person.
Before the director could arrive, Lan Shi spotted the face from the photograph in the crowd of onlookers.
He walked step by step toward Su Ding...
The crowd's attention followed his footsteps, all eyes turning to Su Ding.
Su Ding looked around, noticed everyone staring at her, and stood up in confusion. Just then, Lan Shi reached her.
"Hello, Ms. Su Ding, correct?"
Lan Shi had suppressed his earlier displeasure while walking. Now, he was facing who might very well be his future cousin-in-law.
Su Ding was very confused and nodded blankly.
Suddenly, something clicked in her mind, and she struggled internally. It couldn't be what she was thinking, could it?
Could it really be...?
"Miss Su, this car of flowers is for you. Please sign for them." Lan Shi offered a perfect smile.
Behind him, Su Qingmu, who was utterly humiliated, flushed with a mixture of red and white. So the flowers weren't for her, but for that insignificant little actress!
A supporting actress playing a maid dared to be so conspicuous on set, showing no respect for her, the lead actress!
Amidst the whispers behind her, she could vaguely hear mocking laughter. Angrily, she let out a cold snort and stormed into the dressing room.
Meanwhile, Su Ding, with a feeling of bewilderment and confusion, signed the order form.
There was a message on the card: Xiao Xi wants to give them to you. Jin.
Su Ding stared at the card for a long time.
She absolutely believed that Xiao Xi had nothing to do with the flowers! Xiao Xi was just a tool!
